Wind To Be Felt

I am strong, I am the wind Moving the clouds Moving the trees Breaking branches as I please Moving sailboats, bringing fun Cooling down heat from the sun I scatter seeds that turn to growth I carry kites with birds that balance With me in the air I move I merge ripples and waves to lake shores Turn snowfall into blizzards Sway flowers in spring Carry leaves across the land in fall I am here, every season, the wind Moving ‘things’ around for you to see Because I, you cannot see, but will hear There to be felt when I arrive anywhere Heidi Sands 6/20/17 *Placed 2nd in Contest: Late June Standard Contest
